Jungbluth

Jungbluth, nestled in Berlin’s Steglitz district, is a standout for modern German cuisine and one of the few high-quality establishments offering a refined lunch experience in the city. The menu is thoughtfully curated with seasonal ingredients showcased in both its à la carte offerings and set menus. However, diners should note that the choice for main courses is somewhat limited, with only two options available for seafood and two for meat, which might leave those seeking greater variety a bit wanting. The culinary execution is commendable, with flavors that truly shine and a staff that is both attentive and knowledgeable. Yet, while the service and food quality impress, the overall ambiance could benefit from a bit more polish. The interior, though evocative of past charm, now appears somewhat dated, and on our visit, a lapse in cleanliness was noticeable when leftover food was found on the floor beneath our table. In sum, Jungbluth offers an exceptional lunch for those in search of fine dining during the day. With some refinements in both menu variety and attention to the dining environment, this promising venue has the potential to elevate its overall appeal even further.

Highly recommendable! Outstanding food, freshly cooked, creative but approachable, incredibly tasty. Very friendly service. Nice and casual atmosphere. Could even cater to complicated food intolerance requirements within our group in a way we've never encountered elsewhere. And even had a Philips air purifier on top of the wardrobe in one of the dining rooms for those interested in air quality (can't say if it was running, though). Overall a very lovely experience. Will definitely go back.

I’m Going to tell you a story… in fact six stories. Meals happen every day. But an experience remains. We just had the most memorable meal of a life time. The last time my taste buds were tantalized like this, was in Venice when I was 12 years old and I enjoyed my first REAL dining experience. It began with a greeting from the kitchen consisting of an onion panna cotta. Now don’t ask me how you make onion panna cotta but it was glorious. The true essence of the onion was clear yet delicate. And the texture was mouth watering. Following this we had a smooth paprika soup. The Smokey taste of the paprika was combined excellently with the velvety soup. Next up was a crunchy fried piece of pig belly that made my mouth water. Combine with the Soya sesame reduction, I was immediately transported to cloud 9. As if things weren’t already good enough, we were then greeted by a piece of salmon with peas and asparagus. The fish melted in my mouth as it should, and the asparagus was cooked to perfection. The main course consisted of a piece of lamb back, with spinach, and potato gratin. The lamb could be cut like butter and was seasoned to perfection. The gratin was warm and soft on the inside, with a delicate crunch on the outside. By this point we were stuffed, but were greeted by the finale: a finely curated cheeseboard, along with a chocolate mousse with hard exeterior and hazelnut ice cream. They were the proverbial cherry on the cake. During our dining experience, we drank the accompaniment of wines that the team paired superbly with each course. I cannot speak highly enough of what Andre and his team are doing at Jungbluth. It is the epitome of fine dining, and they find the perfect balance between experimentation and traditional tastes: harmonious like a choir. Thank you!

We had a lovely experience on a Thursday evening. Outstanding food but an unpretentious environment - great! We enjoyed the wine but forgot to note the name of the vineyard. I wrote an email the next day to ask what it was, and the chef himself wrote back and sent the detailed information! Great thought and care here.

10/10!! A phenomenal experience and the best I've had in Berlin! We tried the Michelin star set menu and let me tell you that it was absolute perfection! The flavours were perfectly balanced, everything perfectly cooked and it is not one of those fancy restaurants you leave hungry because of the portion sizes. For the price it is incredible value and I would definitely return! The restaurant has a lovely old school vibe with the setting and the way it has been decorated which just makes it feel more homely. The staff were amazing and make you feel special and at home the entire time! A MUST TRY IN BERLIN!

It was a decent meal, professionally executed, from high quality produce. However, there were too many minor points stopping it from rising to a fully satisfying dining experience. Some of the flavour combinations were not bold enough and seemed to play down to the safe side (for instance the panna cotta was too bland even with the toppings) while others were a bit too pronounced and could have benefited from a surer hand in the kitchen (for example the red rice base of the main that was salty to a point that made it over power the finer ingredients instead of accentuating them). But the main point that stopped it from rising to a truly special dining experience was a lack of passion: there was no guidance or recommendation for choosing from the menu and when the plates arrived, the "story" of the food was not presented (where did ingredients come from, why this direction was chosen? etc.) as you'd expect with this type of cuisine. In fact with a few of the dishes the staff did not even say what was being served but simply left our order on the table, which at this level is disappointing. All in all, nice concept of concentrating on a few well sourced and well executed dishes, fair pricing, but could certainly do better and rise to the next level. I look forward to that happening. Good luck

We were here many times, and came back this Wednesday during the Morgenpost menu. As usual, simply outstanding experience. They were completely booked out, and yet absolutely flawless service. Home-made river trout and stewed beef were crazily delicious. My company couldn’t drink alcohol, so they came up with matching alcohol-free parings. Awesome. Thank you!

Six star menu, service and kindness. Our group was blown away with the food, how careful and kind the staff was, the chef created an unforgettable experience!!

Waitstaff was excellent, attentive, and knowledgeable. They have limited menu options but the food is excellent. Menu not available in English, but that's not really a problem, if you ask for help. My husband and I went for the "surprise" menu (he's a meat eater and I'm a vegetarian), all 3 courses were phenomenal. Highly recommended. 3 course set-dinner including amuse bouche came out to 32 euros per person - highly worth it! I definitely recommend.

We have been going to this fine dining restaurant for the past 5 years. The service has always been top notch. The food has always been fantastic, however tonight I would say it was just okay. Being that this was going to be our last week in Berlin after ten years, I have to say the food fell short! It was disappointing!

Went there for a late dinner with my girlfriend and got a fancy restaurant service for simple restaurant prices. The waiter was super competent and friendly, also recommend us nice German wines (even red). The food was also elevated for German food. And for the first time in my life I ate okra and liked it! Can't wait to go back!

Had a great meal tonight. Friendly servers. Good presentation and the food is amazing. A little pricey however worth it for a special occasion. Excellent combination of tastes.
